I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.
Chapter 51 Start Purchasing Mode
Jiang Qinyu piled all the silver notes, silver coins, and copper coins she had received on the table and said to everyone with a smile, "It's all here."
"so much!"
"Quick, count how many there are!"
"Don't push, don't push. Can you count? Let A Zheng's wife do it!"
"..."
Finally, Jiang Qinyu counted all the banknotes and silver on the table in front of everyone.
"The total is one thousand and fifty-three taels and six cents, plus eighty-six copper coins." Jiang Qinyu reported the final amount.
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared in disbelief at the banknotes, silver, and copper coins arranged on the table with their mouths wide open.
"This... is too much, right?" Chen Shao murmured.
The others also came back to their senses, staring at the silver and swallowing their saliva.
All they knew before was that there was enough prey from the mountains. At first, everyone just wanted to eat meat and didn't think too much about it.
But now all this meat has been exchanged for money, and the visual and auditory impact is too shocking.
This is the result of leaving four sheep in the village!
Jiang Qinyu explained, "It's because we came to the capital city. I didn't know they like eating mutton. If it were in Yongshan County, it would probably only sell for half the price here."
It's not that Yongshan County's price is low, but that no one is buying. If no one is buying, then the price must be reduced. If the price is low, they will get less.
It was different in Yukang Mansion. Mutton was very popular. Even Zuixianju, which was said to be the most difficult to talk to by the owner of Kangyue Inn, bought ten sheep. It was normal for ordinary people to buy two or three kilograms at a time.
In addition, they sell tiger bones separately, and when tiger meat is included, the price is even higher than selling the whole tiger, which is hard to come by.
"Don't forget, we still have a lot of skins that haven't been sold." Meng Tianze said excitedly.
Liu Erlang slapped his head and said, "Yes, we still have some leather to sell!"
"The skins probably won't fetch much money," Jiang Qinyu had to pour cold water on them. "Many of our skins are not complete, especially the tiger skins. They won't fetch a high price."
Meng Tianze also nodded and said, "That's right, why don't we just find a merchant to sell these skins together?"
With more than a thousand taels of silver in front of them, the price of a piece of leather for a few taels or even less than one tael could no longer excite them.
"Then Brother Meng will go with me this afternoon, and the rest of us can go to the city to ask about the prices of the things we want to buy. We will go shopping tomorrow morning and leave the city and go home in the afternoon." Jiang Qinyu made the arrangements.
Liu Erlang was the most frugal person in the village. Upon hearing this, he quickly asked, "Why don't we buy the things this afternoon? We can leave the city tonight and save the money for a night's hotel stay!"
"Uncle Erleng, this money may not be saved," Jiang Qinyu looked at him helplessly, "We have too many things to buy, and the shop may need to adjust the stock or something."
They can place an order when they go to inquire about the price this afternoon and pick it up tomorrow morning. This way, they can buy everything as quickly as possible and go back tomorrow.
"What my sister-in-law said is right. Let's go ask around in the afternoon and decide on everything that can be decided." Meng Tianze said.
Jiang Qinyu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I make a shopping list for everyone so that we don't buy duplicates."
"That's fine," Jiang Dacheng nodded repeatedly. "I was just wondering what to do if I buy too much!"
Liu Yazi scratched his head awkwardly and looked at Jiang Qinyu and said, "But Sister Lu, we can't read!"
"It's okay. I can draw it out on the list for you. Everyone will understand it at a glance." Jiang Qinyu smiled helplessly.
Few people in Dingshui Village can read. Even the village chief can only recognize a few simple words, let alone other people.
Because they were illiterate and couldn't do accounting, most farmers of that era rarely traveled far. They sold whatever they had at their doorsteps, and they didn't even realize that the prices were ridiculously low.
No, we have to find a way to set up a literacy class, at least to let them recognize common characters and know basic arithmetic.
Having made up her mind, Jiang Qinyu asked them to go eat first, and she would make a list and bring it to them.
After they left, Jiang Qinyu went straight into the space.
At present, she has only unlocked the grain and oil area and the aquatic product area. There is nothing in these two areas that can be quickly converted into cash, and the price of cloth in Yukang Mansion is between three hundred and four hundred and fifty coins per piece.
In other words, if she wanted to buy a thousand pieces of cloth, she would have to prepare at least three hundred taels of silver.
Jiang Qinyu's eyes fell on the seasoning section of the grain and oil area. No, selling seasonings would be too slow and she didn't have time.
Then there is only one way left...
In the afternoon, Jiang Qinyu and Meng Tianze took the skins to a business in the city and sold all the skins, some good and some bad, at once, earning a total of more than sixty taels of silver.
After coming out of the trading company, Meng Tianze did not rush to catch the carriage, but strolled around the area with Jiang Qinyu.
Just after walking a few dozen meters, Jiang Qinyu heard a system prompt sound in her mind.
[Ding! Sufficient items have been detected to complete the mission. Please go and collect them as soon as possible!]
Jiang Qinyu raised her eyes and looked around, and sure enough, she saw a cloth shop about two hundred meters ahead.
Finally found it!
"Brother Meng, I want to go to the cloth shop." Jiang Qinyu pointed ahead.
Meng Tianze knew they wanted to buy cloth, and nodded when he heard it, "The cloth shop is full of women, so I won't go in. My sister-in-law can go in and talk, and I'll be responsible for moving the things."
"Okay, then I'll go in first." Jiang Qinyu said and walked towards the cloth shop.
After she went in and took a rough look, she found that the fabrics here were very complete, covering every group in all aspects.
The people working in the store were all women, and they were all kind even to Jiang Qinyu, who was wearing a coarse linen shirt.
"Miss, is your boss here? I want to buy more than a thousand pieces of cloth." Jiang Qinyu found the woman who looked the most respectably dressed and started a conversation.
The woman looked at her in surprise and asked, "Miss, why do you want to buy so much?"
"I bought it for the people in our village. There are many people in our village." Jiang Qinyu said embarrassedly.
In fact, the village's budget for buying cloth this time was less than two hundred pieces in total, and she did this entirely because of the cheating system.
"My mother is the owner of the cloth shop. I can make the decision. Miss, just tell me what you want to buy!" The woman understood immediately after she knew that she was buying it for the villagers.
Hearing that she was the one who made the decision, Jiang Qinyu became less polite. She first asked what kind of cloth was the cheapest and how much stock they had, and then she asked about all the cloths the villagers needed.
"There should be thousands of pieces of the cheapest cloth in the warehouse. Since you want more, I'll give you a discount. Let's say two hundred and eighty coins per piece!"
"A piece of cotton cloth is 420 wen, and colored coarse cloth is only 330 wen. The other finer cloths are..."
As the woman continued to quote prices, Jiang Qinyu had a preliminary understanding of the prices of these cloths. At the same time, she took advantage of the fact that she bought a lot and kept bargaining.
In the end, she got the lowest price for each type of cloth.
The woman looked at her helplessly, "I've never seen anyone bargain as well as you do."
If it weren't for the fact that the homespun cloth in the warehouse was not wanted and was taking up space, and this girl was willing to buy it all, she wouldn't have wanted to talk to this man.
"Sister, you are beautiful and kind-hearted. It's not easy for people in our village to earn some money. I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone." Jiang Qinyu quickly saluted.
The woman was at a loss for words. "Okay, okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, but how are you going to take all this away?"
